Ex-Bankers: Worth a Look … Or the Hand?

24 August 2009

After more than a year of hollowing out, at least some financial employers appear interested in refilling long-empty seats.

Yet many observers report those intrepid firms are much more interested in hiring away their rivals' stars than in parsing the crowd of laid-off veterans itching to get back in the saddle.

Why do you think that is? Do today's bankers-in-transition constitute the industry's dead wood – the last people any hiring manager should consider when he needs talent?

  • In that question, overqualified bankers should downgrade their profiles on their CV???

  • This type of article is redundant.  We know that 75% of laid off individuals were over the age of 45.  So what's new?  The corporates are regenerating.  What's the point?

    Thanks.
